Wargames Atlantic Announce Official Sharpe's Rifles Wargame

Wargames Atlantic are bringing Bernard Cornwell’s Richard Sharpe to the tabletop.

Coming soon from Wargames Atlantic, Sharpe’s Rifles will be a brand new tabletop wargame written by Andy Hobday (Test of Honour, Mortal Gods, The Barons’ War) and supported by a range of plastic miniatures.

Wargames Atlantic have previewed this new range with a brand new Richard Sharpe miniature. This new interpretation of the iconic character is available in both 28 and 54mm scale. The 54mm model includes a scenic base, whilst its smaller, multi-part cousin sports alternative arms and heads as well as a textured base.

A detailed miniature of Richard Sharpe stands confidently, holding a rifle over his shoulder and a pistol in his right hand. He is dressed in a green military uniform with black buttons and a red sash, set on a textured scenic base featuring rocky terrain and tufts of grass. The figure captures a dynamic pose, showcasing intricate details in the clothing and facial expression.

Similar frames will soon be available for other characters from the series such as Harper, Riflemen Harris etc.

See the Wargames Atlantic website for more details.
